"Lawnmower" - Intha fisherman - Inle Lake - Myanmar
An Intha fisherman poses at sunset on Inle Lake, Myanmar.
Intha fishermen are known for practicing a distinctive rowing style which involves standing at the stern on one leg and wrapping the other leg around the oar. This unique style evolved for the reason that the lake is covered by reeds and floating plants making it difficult to see above them while sitting.
